Alfa Laval is proud to take part in COP27
The world’s largest meeting on climate change, COP (Conference of the Parties), is taking place for the 27th time in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt. Once again, Alfa Laval is honoured to be part of the Swedish delegation in association with Business Sweden. Together with other large companies, we will be active at the conference as we accelerate the transition to a sustainable, decarbonized world.
Why is Alfa Laval involved?
Alfa Laval is participating in COP27 because we need to accelerate the transition to net zero. Technologies are available today that can contribute to reaching Paris Agreement targets, and we want to make those solutions visible to policy makers. By doing so, we hope to accelerate their implementation and support the transition to a decarbonized future.
To move forward, we need to work across sectors, in partnerships that speed the deployment and commercialization of innovation towards decarbonization. COP27 is a forum for establishing those partnerships, as well as a place to listen and learn about the challenges.

More about the difference we make
Through work with energy efficiency, clean energy, circularity and more, Alfa Laval is providing poineering sustainable solutions. Here are just a few concrete examples.
The Energy Efficiency Movement
As part of the Energy Efficiency Movement, Alfa Laval is putting focus on the most sustainable form of energy – the energy that hasn’t been produced in the first place.
Re-Made to Matter
Teaming up in a ground-breaking exchange programme for heat exchangers, Alfa Laval and Stena Recyling are creating a circular approach to heating and cooling applications.
Concept Zero
Alfa Laval is partnering with SSAB to develop the world’s first heat exchanger made from fossil-free steel. This is a key step on our way to a fully carbon neutral heat exchanger by 2030.
Plant-based protein
Plants can answer the rising demand for sustainable protein sources, and Alfa Laval is making it happen. Our solutions for processing plant-based protein boost both quality and yield.
Long duration energy storage
As an initiator of the Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) Council, Alfa Laval is working to remove a key barrier to clean power: the intermittent nature of renewable energy.
Green hydrogen
Green hydrogen offers a zero-emission fuel solution for many sectors. Through a broad portfolio of thermal and separation technologies, Alfa Laval is enabling the transition.
Beer concentration
Revos is a high-pressure, low-temperature concentration system that removes water from beer and beverages yet retains the original flavour profile upon rehydration.
Olive oil processing
By using evaporation systems and decanter separation technology it is possible to harvest valuable antioxidants and pomace olive oil from the leftovers of the olive oil extraction process.
Weather information services
StormGeo, owned by Alfa Laval, provides weather information services helping customers mitigate risk, improve safety and make sustainable choices on routes and operations.
